Student Handbook: Vice President’s Welcome

Welcome to Southside Virginia Community College! Your decision to enroll at SVCC is a good one. You’re more than just a number here. You are part of a diverse, thriving community of learners that is made up of people of all ages and backgrounds. Like nearly all community colleges, SVCC’s student body consists of men and women who recently graduated from high school and adults who have returned to college to complete a degree, change careers or improve their current job skills. We are committed to the “open door” philosophy, which means we’re here to provide all students the opportunity to succeed. Students are at the center of everything we do. As a result, our staff and faculty take immense pride in being accessible to help you navigate your academic journey. I am here to be your advocate and I am honored that you have chosen SVCC as the place to further your education and career goals. 

Sincerely,

Dr. Daryl Minus, Vice President of Enrollment Management & Student Success
